(PMID:21422535) Lee B,   Al-Waili N,   Butler G,   Salom K Department of Surgery, New York Medical College, New York, NY, USA. Technology and Health Care : Official Journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine   [2011, 19(2):109-114] Type:   Journal Article Abstract Since   heparin   has been in use as an   anticoagulant   during vascular surgery and medical problems such as DVT or   pulmonary embolism , there has been no consensus as to the best method of monitoring its effect on anticoagulation. In this study we used Sonoclot Analyzer to detect   Hemostasis   changes resulting from   heparin   administration. The study involved 16 randomly selected male patients undergoing peripheral reconstructive surgery. Blood samples were drawn and ana...
